Event Date:
October 23, 2016 - 5:00pm Each year, Live Violence Free brings together members and leaders of the community to strengthen their capacity to uphold their mission of promoting a violence free community through education and advocacy to address domestic violence, sexual assault, and child abuse, and basic needs. With the support of our donors and community members, they host their annual Sunset Gala to build resiliency and resources for clients and families. This year is the agency's 17th Annual Sunset Gala, held at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course on Sunday, October 23 from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
This year’s Sunset Gala will honor treasured and long-time board member, Marissa Muscat, MD. Marissa has given years of dedication and countless hours heavily involved on the LVF Board of Directors.
"Marissa embodies the pinnacle of our vision to work together for positive change," said Lisa Piazza of Live Violence Free.
At the Gala, a trio of delicious food by Harrah’s and Harvey’s, Montbleu, and Lakeside Casinos will be offered. Entertainment extends beyond the live music, showcasing a fantastic silent and live auction, as well as sweet treats and cocktails to accompany the festivities.
Funds raised at the Sunset Gala will go directly toward Live Violence Free's programs and services, specifically targeted to uplifting survivors of violence. In addition to their crisis intervention and case management work, these funds will also support prevention-related efforts that aim to educate all ages so that cycles of violence and mistreatment are reduced and ultimately eliminated.
"Our mission is clear, our vision is big, and we sincerely hope you join us on this magnificent evening to become part of our community striving for healing, freedom and empowerment for all," added Piazza.
